Rug Care Brookwood

Oriental Rug Spa offer a specialist Persian, Oriental and Contemporary rug cleaning in Brookwood.  We also offer a rug repair service.  If you own a dirty or soiled rug that needs professional cleaning, then why not give us a call on 01276 423150.  You can drop the rug into our wash facility or arrange a time for us to collect from you.

The rug wash process required can differ from rug to rug, so we offer various methods of rug cleaning, from full immersion washing to dry cleaning.  All rug fibres can be cared for - wool, cotton, silk, viscose, rayon.  We can carry out a pet stain and odour treatment, moth treatment and apply a fibre protection to resist against soiling and staining.  We have extensive experience with cleaning antique rugs and rugs with unstable dyes and offer a rug repair service, including fringes, sides and pile reweaving.

Moth Damage

Moth damage on the back of a Chinese Rug

Moths are becoming an increasingly common problem to wool and silk rugs.  As you can see from the image they can cause a large amount of damage.  The damage that moths can cause sometimes goes unnoticed, as with this rug they have been eating the fibres from the back of the rug.  Moths tend to prefer dark, undisturbed areas to carry out their destruction.  The adults will lay their eggs in these areas knowing that their offspring will have an ideally suited environment and food source, increasing their chances of surviving into adulthood.  The larvae cases can survive for many months before maturing into adults, and in that time can completely ruin a rug.

Regular vacuuming both sides of the rug can reduce the damage.  Creating a light and airy environment can also reduce moth activity as they tend to thrive in dark humid conditions.

If you have any concerns regarding moths, then please get in touch.  We can carry out a complete moth treatment service that will reduce the risk of further damage in the future.

As with all hand knotted and machine made rugs, cleaning should never be attempted in the home using detergent based solutions which could compromise the dyes.  Professional cleaning would be recommended to prolong the life and maintain the appearance of these wonderful pieces of floor art.

If you have a machine made rug that would benefit from a spa treatment, then why not give us a call on 01276 423 150 to get a quote and advice.
